I was researching these cars, and came across an article that stated the 1984 & 1985 turbodiesel engines have an alloy cylinder head (versus iron) and that they don’t need valve adjustments. Plus, they have a serpentine belt drive for the accessories – is this a preferable setup compared to the earlier conventional V-belt setups?

Or is this information even correct??

Thanks again!
